About this property

The Rustik refugewith spa

CITQ: 312003

The Rustik Refuge invites you, your family and friends to spend unforgettable moments. Located on the banks of the Lièvre River, it offers a magnificent view.

Spacious and warm, with rustic and modern decor. The fully equipped kitchen includes a raclette set, a fondue set and a blender. There are two relaxation areas: one with a wood-burning fireplace, the other a solarium with a TV and work desk. At the bottom of the property, a dock leads down to the river.

THE LAYOUT
The master bedroom, on the mezzanine, overlooks the river. There is one bedroom on the ground floor and two connecting bedrooms in the basement, with one bathroom on each floor. Two living rooms, a game room, and a large balcony overlooking the river.

The basement holds a play area with a pool table, a small arcade machine, a bar and a spa. Several children`s games are kept in the living room chest.

OUTSIDE
The veranda gives access to the spa and an outdoor fire pit. Two outdoor furniture sets seat six each, one on the upper balcony and one on the lower. A double adult kayak and three adult life jackets are available.

GUEST ACCESS
Travelers have full access to the property, excluding the garage in the parking lot. I am always available during your stay if you have any questions or emergencies.

THINGS TO DO NEARBY
Parc Jean Matha Constantineau is just 5 minutes away. This waterfront park has a playground, picnic tables, a birdwatching dock and a floating dock on the water. It is free, open 24/7, and a local favourite.

Trail #2513 of the Quadri-Laus and Quad Destination Hautes-Laurentides ATV clubs runs directly through the municipality. A snowmobile trail belonging to Club de Motoneige Anti-Loup Inc. also passes through, connecting to the larger trails of Club de Motoneige Les Ours Blancs.

Suggested restaurants: Auberge Presqu`île, Restaurant Chez Julie, Casse-Croûte chez Lorraine.

The nearest grocery store is Le Marché Bonichoix in Notre-Dame-du-Laus. The nearest convenience store is Le Beau-Soir in Notre-Dame-de-Pontmain.

The neighbouring town of Mont-Laurier offers a cinema, library, beauty and relaxation spa, restaurants, shopping centre, the Jacques-Lesage sports centre, the VD equestrian centre and Re-Cyclo Sports Perron bike rental.

Thanks :) We are waiting for you this summer! Take note that just in front of the cottage when you cross the river, there are beaches that belong to Crown land so it's allowed and free to enjoy them.

Other than the central air conditioner broken and obviously damaged by vandals this VRBO was all that we expected. Only small problems noticed that will be forwarded to the host that they were most likely not aware of. Speaking on this subject the host was extremely easy to contact and went above expectations in dealing with anything I needed to discuss prior to arrival and during our stay.

We also appreciate you taking the time to let us know about the small issues you noticed, as it helps us continue improving the experience for future guests.

Wonderful

The space was excellent with fantastic amenities. Especially the kitchen was tremendous- cookware was high quality, knives were sharp- overall an excellent experience if you like to cook while you vacation. The pool table and hot tub were great, and the overall experience was excellent. Highly recommend.

Overall, we had a good stay and enjoyed the property. The cottage is beautiful, spacious, and peaceful, making it a great place for a family gathering. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals for a group.The access to the water was more difficult than expected, particularly for seniors and children. We also encountered a few issues during our stay, including problems with the air conditioning, access to the shed, and a missing kayak. The host acknowledged these challenges and has advised that they are being addressed for future guests.Overall, this is a property in a beautiful setting with a lot to offer, and we hope future renters will be able to enjoy it with these improvements in place.

Vraiment belle place! Beau chalet! Beau paysage! Bien équipé. Bel espace de jeux en bas. Chauffage en bas laisse un peu à désirer surtout dans les chambres (soit un à trop chaud, soit l’autre à trop froid (si les portes sont fermés). Lits inconfortables en bas. Sommes toutes, belle expérience, je recommanderais!

Chalet de rêve

Tout y était, allant des jouets pour les enfants aux commodités pour tout le monde. Idéal pour une sortie en famille même avec de jeunes enfants. Courtoisie et facilité de communiquer avec l’hôtesse.
